What relationship does the mid segment have to the base of a triangle?
A trapezoid midsegment is parallel to the set of parallel lines in a trapezoid and is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases
True or false the area of a trapezoid is equal to the product of the height and the length of the mid-segment?
False because the area of a trapezoid is: 0.5*(sum of its parallel sides)*height
Describe how to locate the quarter points of a line segment?
On method would be to find the midpoint of the line segment and then to find the mid points of each of the halves.
Bisector of a segment?
The mid-point
A point on a line segment that divides the segment into two congruent segments?
The mid-point
What is the midsegment formula?
Median of a trapezoid is a line segment found on the midpoint of the legs of a trapezoid. It is also known as mid-line or mid-segment. Its basic formula is AB + CD divided by 2.
How do you find the mid segment of a trapezoid?
Look for the two sides which are parallel. You will find the mid segment halfway between the two sides.
How do you find the length of the mid segment in a trapezoid?
You take the arithmetic mean (average) of the parallel sides.
The segment whose endpoints are the midpoints of the legs of the trapezoid?
Mid line segment.
What is the part of a trapezoid that the segment joins the midpoints of the nonparallel opposite sides?
mid-segment
Is The length of the mid segment of a trapezoid is equal to the sum of the lengths of the bases.?
No, it is not.
What is the length of the mid segment of a trapezoid with bases of lengths 15 and 23?
It will be 19 units.
What relationship does the mid segment have to the base of a triangle?
A trapezoid midsegment is parallel to the set of parallel lines in a trapezoid and is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases
The length of the mid-segment of a trapezoid is equal to the sum of the lengths of the bases. true or false?
False.
True or false the area of a trapezoid is equal to the product of the height and the length of the mid-segment?
False because the area of a trapezoid is: 0.5*(sum of its parallel sides)*height
Describe how to locate the quarter points of a line segment?
On method would be to find the midpoint of the line segment and then to find the mid points of each of the halves.
Why bisect a line segment?
To find its mid point. Which then raises the question why find its midpoint and I cannot answer that.
